Michigan steakhouse bans Michael Moore, Seth Rogen for anti-‘American Sniper’ tweets

Seth Rogen and Michael Moore may never have plans to come to Brann’s, a steakhouse in Wyoming, Mich., but the restaurant’s owner wants to be very clear that the celebrities and their opinions are not welcome there.

A sign outside of Brann’s reads, “Michael Moore and Seth Rogan [sic] are NOT allowed in my place,” according to local NBC affiliate WOOD-TV.

The sign was put up by restaurant’s owner Tommy Brann after both Moore and Rogen made negative comments about the movie “American Sniper” on social media.

The movie is based on the life of Chris Kyle, a U.S. Navy Seal and the deadliest sniper in U.S. history.

Moore claimed that he “tried to saved more lives than a sniper ever could” and blamed a sniper for his grandfather’s death. Rogen likened the movie to Nazi propaganda, a comment he later tried to walk back.

“For 43 years I’ve been a small business man because of the Chris Kyles of the world and I have a right to not serve the Michael Moores and the Seth Rogens,” Brann said. “That guy (Chris Kyles) is an American hero.”
